Cargo wise the 787-8 has done ok since there is no competitor. For passenger use it has done really poorly - only Air China, Korean Air, and Lufthansa have taken it. LH have already talked about getting rid of the 747-8 well before it's normal retirement date - normally it would be in service for 25 years at least.
